What is Going on With Betty's Only

Time hasn't permitted me to write here. Actually, I haven't made candles for a really long time. I just made some Friday evening. It was something to do. I have been thinking that it is time to stop playing and move forward with Betty's Only. This has been something that I have wanted to do, I just haven't put forth the time, money, and effort it takes to promote Betty's Only.
My domain name expired. It was reinstated the other day. I don't know how to log into my account to check my email. There is a vendor opportunity on Broadway, I think I am going to participate, I have sent an email to find out more information. I have been wanting to do an event, but I am scared. That is a mess. I know, but I just don't want to fail. How do I know if I will fail if I don't try? That is the main question.

Since I haven't been making candles for so long. I have decided to put some money toward Betty's Only. I need to get some more item to make Betty's Only better, it needs to be revamped. The website updated. I need to offer more types of candles, more items, and a variety of things. Promotion is the one thing that needs to be done.

Things Needed
more wicks for votives
jars (variety)
leveler
I am about to see this thing through. Betty's Only is my candle company and I want others to know. I do understand that I have to work to make it grow to what I know it can be. It is going to take me to take it to the next level. The way it is packaged now doesn't offer the fragrance. It does give me a way to display the business card, you can see what the candle looks like, and they are matches too.

I truly enjoy candles and I know that they can offer many things to individuals.
light a candle after a long days work and just relax
give them as gift ideas for any occasion
color coordinate them to fit in any setting
us them to light up a room

A Variety of Different Candles



Vessel of Aroma with Business Card

Jars I Bought at the Attic Sale for 25 cents.

I would upload more photos, but it keeps distorting my paragraphs. There is a change coming for the best tired of being mediocre. There is enough out there for everyone to prosper. Now it's my time.

I Really Don't Know What to Say

Betty's Only has not had anything going on. Remember I had some candles on consignment. I didn't sell any candles there. I removed them in January. The place was not air conditioned, some of them started to melt. I had to change my formula. In the house I have many candles, but don't know what to do with them. I know I can sell that but the question is where and how do I go about doing that? I thought about the beer commercial, I make them and someone else sells them. I am somewhat at wits end. Betty's Only is about to expire. It has been up for one year and I haven't sold anything on it. Now, that is sad!

There have been some suggestions. For instance, contact big name brands and send some samples. Or send a few samples out just to get them out. I really don't know what to do. I just started back making candles about a week ago, that was my first time since December. I know.

I have the business cards, but don't pass them out. Ok, what I will do is make a card to put on the candle. I think my packaging will be a burlap bag with ribbon and a name tag. I think that is what I will do. I need help! I can make money, but I just don't know what to do to get them out there to the public eye.

I am making candles now. I have done this time and time again. Don't get me wrong, I have been selling candles, but not like I should. I will make 10 candles of each and at that point sell them so kind of way. There are so many things that need to be done, just a matter of handling it.
